HORNET

Scientific name: Vespa crabro

My favourite food is nectar and sap, and also other bugs which we share with our Queen. Bye.

Hello,

I can see you, but you won’t see me unless you are looking up in the sky.

I hover above you, keeping my eyes perfectly still, before swooping down. But don’t worry I don’t eat humans

You call me a Kestrel, and I like eating much smaller mammals like voles and mice.

I like living in this part of Wakefield because of all the long grass here.

I build my home in holes in trees, or even in your old buildings which are very cosy.
